The article “Dimensions of gender equality in Georgia” of the expert Ekaterine Gamakharia was published in Prague (Czech Republic) on May 29.

The article describes the situation related to gender equality in Georgia. The main focus made on the necessity to consolidate actions and response of all stakeholders, including governmental authorities, donor organizations, the private sector and civil society organizations to change the situation for better. Only then, gender policies and programs favouring women’s access to politics, decision-making positions and labour market will be more effective.
